Eric Trump Says His Family is the ‘First Honest Family’ to Ever Go to Washington DC — and Twitter Let’s Him Have it

By

The Trumps are the first honest family to ever come to Washington DC. They “gave up their business” to be president, according to Eric Trump. That is kind of funny because we recall seeing this:

And this:

And this:

And this:

So it is kind of odd that, given that stuff is literally out in the open, Eric Trump would claim to be the “first honest family” to come to Washington DC because they got out of business. This man from the “first honest family” literally lied in that very sentence!

Eric Trump last night: “You know, we’re the first honest family who’s actually ever gone into Washington, DC. It’s amazing. We got out of business when my father became president.” MUCH MORE BELOW

I mean, we didn’t even get into the fact that they were “in business” in politics:

Former President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner writes in his forthcoming memoir that the famous red “Make America Great Again” hats earned the Republican’s 2016 campaign up to $80,000 per day — covering the bulk of expenses after an initial order of just 100.

We didn’t mention books, did we?

The Republican National Committee (RNC) reportedly paid more than $300,000 to buy copies of Donald Trump Jr.’s new self-published book, according to a report by Daily Beast, which were eventually given out to donors who had contributed between $50 and $100 to the RNC.

Keep in mind, books, hats, and hotels (The Trump International in Washington DC) are not campaign money or PAC money. That goes straight into their pockets. So, we’ve proven that not only did they continue with their own businesses that they had prior to the presidency, they built new businesses on top of the presidency. We didn’t mention Ivanka!

As you might imagine, Twitter. Went. Off.
